Fighting

(Intro)
i ain’t even gonna lie…
i’m trying to stay strong but this sh*t breaking me Chelsie you have my heart and you hurting me 
16 years don’t just disappear like that

(Verse 1)
i been losing sleep, mind racing every night
tryna act strong but i’m tired of the fight
house feel different, something don’t feel right
same walls, but it don’t feel like life

i look at our kids and i see us in them
every laugh, every smile, yeah a piece of us in ‘em
how we go from forever to just surviving
when we used to be the reason each other kept trying

i ain’t tryna blame you, i ain’t tryna attack
i’m just tryna understand how we ended up like that
i still see you the same when i look in your eyes
but now it’s like i’m the only one holding the line

(Pre-Hook)
and i’m breaking inside but i don’t let it show
‘cause i gotta be strong for the life that we know

(Hook — original)
we got history nobody can replace
five little reasons i can’t walk away
through the pain, through the love, through the storm we made
i’m still holding on, i ain’t letting it fade

(Verse 2 — original)
16 years deep, yeah we built this from the ground
five kids later, that’s a whole life all around
every late night, every fight, every tear
we still stood strong, you was always right here

i ain’t perfect, i made mistakes i admit
but i never switched up on the love, not a bit
from the start to now, yeah it’s always been you
even when it’s dark, i still see what we grew

(Verse 3 — new deeper part)
i been sitting in silence, tryna not break down
holding back tears when nobody around
it’s crazy how love can feel this heavy
one minute it’s solid, next minute unsteady

you say you’re confused, say you’re scared, i get it
but i’m scared too and i never said forget it
i’m still right here, i ain’t walking away
even when it hurts more and more every day

i replay everything we been through in my head
all the promises made, every word that we said
i don’t wanna lose you, i don’t wanna let go
but i can’t keep holding on alone no more

(Bridge)
i need you to see me, not just hear what i say
i’m still that same man that ain’t ever gonna stray
through the broken pieces, through the pain and the scars
i’m still choosing you… no matter how hard

(Hook — extended)
we got history nobody can replace
five little reasons i can’t walk away
through the pain, through the love, through the storm we made
i’m still holding on, i ain’t letting it fade

16 years deep, you still part of my soul
even if we breaking, i ain’t letting you go
through the hurt, through the tears, through the mess we made
i’m still holding on, i ain’t letting it fade

(Outro)
16 years… five kids… that’s forever 
i just wish you still saw what we used to be
i’m still here… still fighting… still trying to hold us together
but i can’t do it alone… not forever
